It sounds like the way they are negotiating with Lyles is the San Antonio way.

It may be the case... there is some precedent for it. Seems like a dick move to do to start out your first rounders career if you already have space and are not in the tax. i'd rather just give him what everyone else would and move forward. No need to hurt relationships with the player or agent over what is pennies compared to the dollars that will be out there the next few years.

What's amusing about how much Dala and NAOS aggravate eachother is how similar they are. Although one is less pretentious than the other.

This is one of the worst posts ever.

Im not about to read this whole thread but what's the consensus on this move by the front office? Does it have a precedent? It's kind of wierd right?

Okay, but you're really missing out.

Call me crazy but I wouldn't want to do that Spurs deal. Why try and make them better, for a low 1st rounder. I could see the Mcroberts trade but i'd want a future 1st plus the rights to swap. Your saving them like 20 million. Mcroberts could be a great pickup, depending on his injury. Again, theirs a bigger deal / situation holding things up.

Your not crazy... Mills would be awesome and has a great contract. Diaw is not known for being in great shape and could end up being a dud... we could waive him after a year though.

The Heat have too many obligations with their picks... think the best you'd get is a pick swap. McBob is on a good deal (according to how players are being paid this offseason) and I really don't think they'd have a problem moving him to other teams.

DL should get fire. He takes him even though he should take booker and now he causes friction!!!!! Why is his problem??

I really like DL... no way should he be fired. The negotiations may not be antagonistic and he may be working on a good deal right now. Its all wild speculation at this point.
 
I just feel bad for Jazz fans that bought tickets for summer league and are traveling to SLC with the expectation of seeing Lyles play. I understand they can't really divulge ongoing contract negotiations, but they should probably let fans know that he isn't going to play in the Jazz summer league if it is so questionable. It seems like a pretty big faux pas on the part of DL.

No. Even if nothing happens, DL is keeping his options open. Entertaining fans in SL is peanuts compared to the big picture. DL may not know for sure if Lyles is even going to be on the team, so expecting him to give answers that he may not have is unreasonable. Suck it up and enjoy watching the other guys or skip it if you prefer, but there are more important things for DL to worry about.

I'm not worried about myself, I bought Summer League Pass before I even knew who the Jazz were going to pick. I just feel for anyone traveling to SLC thinking they're going to see the Jazz's lottery pick play.

As someone who got into SLC last night, primarily to go to the summer league, I couldn't really care less whether or not Lyles plays or not. This summer league is all about seeing how much work Exum (and Hood) have put in.
 
David West signs with Spurs.....Will a trade finally go down? I cant believe there expecting 10,000 tonight for summer league. Thats way awesome support.
